“…and true love it is a rock
smoothed over by a stream
and no ticking of a clock
truly measures what that means…”
(Shaun Mullins – Shimmer)

congratulations for a wonderful 50 years of marriage – more photos coming soon! 🙂

as the young pastor who performed the celebrant duties said, “how does one begin to lead a ceremony which celebrates a marriage that has been in place longer than one has even been alive?”

well, pastor hugh’s age notwithstanding; the ceremony was elegant and beautiful, and a fitting tribute to the love shared for so long between two such gentle and well-loved people. but, enough talk – more photos!
